Storytelling: Ideas and Insights from Modern Tales

By Roemer McPhee

Storytelling is a book of ideas. It is a large collection of short essays that identify and analyze timeless ideas and universal insights; insights into humanity and life. Wisdom and truth of all kinds are found in modern stories, of all kinds. It is an amazing resource-available to everybody. Storytelling goes where the artists go, examining most all of the major themes and issues and concerns that people have always faced.

From "Aliens" to "Cabaret" to "Lolita" to "Minority Report," the book finds the hidden gems of wisdom that will last, and often outlast the surrounding story itself. Dramatic, illuminating, and peppered with humor, this book of essays exposes the profound, intriguing, and observant qualities of a modern story that often go unnoticed.

To art, to art! To the great storyteller's art.
